Even Midori's triple lutz is more impressive than the collective accomplishments of Tara Lipinski and Oskana Baiul. Both of these hags maybe need to cure cancer, save Africa, AND resolve the Middle East conflict to come close to Midori's triple axel.

Midori Ito didn't have a true lutz. She was a flutzer. She had a big triple axel, but it was not particularly beautiful or perfect in form. And one big jump cannot warrant a definitive judgment like the one you made. We all know a figure skating performance can be (and should be) much more than a simple sum of its elements.
